Snow-kissed saguaro. Javelinas trotting across asphalt. Roofers working in the dead of July. For our 15th annual showcase of reader-provided photographic art, Resilient Arizona, we showcase the most striking images of survival and endurance in our oft inhospitable state. Resilience, after all, is the Arizona way.
From ramshackle ghost towns and creaky haunted hotels to desolate desert scenes and skies aflame with foreboding, the Grand Canyon State is suffused with spooky spectacles. For this year’s Eerie Arizona theme, amateur and semi-professional photographers submitted their most artfully unsettling images. The 12 finalists will take you on a magical mystery tour of Southwest oddities.
